Glenn Drive. The meeting will be 8 to 9:30 a.m. with gathering and refreshments starting 7:30 a.m. Since festival season will have begun by this time, it will just be a morning meeting that day. Bring your business cards because there will be a door prize drawing and an opportunity to network with the other attendees. At this meeting, you will receive a survey, asking the best time to have meetings going forward; what Engels’ role is and how she advocates for the businesses; and discussions will start on what the group, as a whole, wants to see happen to improve downtown. ![]() The Glendale Star Pedego Electric Bikes at 5940 W. Union Hills Drive, Suite B-140, in Glendale had a big grand opening this past October in partnership with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce. Mayor Weiers didn’t cut the ribbon; instead, he rode through it on one of their bikes. This is the kind of fun you can expect when you visit Pedego Electric Bikes. The Glendale location is adjacent to some of the city’s beautiful bike trails and clients can rent the bikes for any occasion. Owners Steve and Sherry Roueche also sell every available model of Pedego bikes in the market and can service them on sight. ![]() The Glendale Star By CAROLYN DRYER, Editor It’s been a challenging, but fun ride. And, it has been extended. Robert Heidt celebrated his fourth anniversary Oct. 14 as president and CEO of Glendale Chamber of Commerce. He got a nice gift; the chamber board of directors gave him an offer he could not refuse: a new 10-year extension on his contract. Terms were not disclosed. But from the smile on Heidt’s face, it appears he is satisfied and content where he is. Besides, he is not finished with the work he set out to do when he landed here. City of Glendale
